"Can mud and water really catch fire?"
After trying seven or eight times in a row, there was no accurate mixing ratio. Su Yuan could only continue to use the method of controlling variables and try them one by one. Every time he threw a 'charcoal ball' into the fire, it only burned out bursts of thick smoke.
The soil was mixed with grass clippings and charcoal, and the thick smoke from burning made everyone hold their noses and watch from a distance.
"Of course, I'm just trying to make it with the least charcoal ratio. You can find some nearby soil. Are you planning to climb up the mountain to find trees?"
Su Yuan rolled his eyes at Hu Jiu. In this frosty weather of the season, he had no intention of going to the mountain to soak in a hot spring, let alone looking for trees there.
"Stop talking. Look, isn't it burning?"
This batch of dried peat was made into fist-sized squares with a few small holes dug out on them, making it look a bit like square honeycomb briquettes.
It's just that this thing's appearance is too distorted, and its surface is covered with cracks after being smoked and dried.
After the peat bricks were thrown into the fire, a layer of orange flames appeared on the brown surface after a while.
"Can soil really burn?"
This opened the eyes of the beast girls observing around. Fox Nine stared at this scene with wide eyes in curiosity, and his mouth was full of doubts about the common sense he had known before.
"How about bringing your tail over here to test the temperature?" Su Yuan stared at Fox Nine's tail and smiled evilly. This made Fox Nine tightly clamp the shaking tail behind it.
"Hehehe, I have always believed in you, Su Yuan, and I have never doubted you."
The little fox was frightened by Su Yuan's words, and quickly ran over to hug him obediently, using his clean little hands to pick off the mud on Su Yuan's hands.
The others gathered around, and the baked peat bricks were placed next to the fire, but some of them had cracked because the hole in the middle was too big.
"Just grind the charcoal and mix it with the soil according to the proportions I used last time, then poke a few holes in the middle with a branch. It doesn't matter if it cracks after baking."
The holes are just to increase air circulation and allow more oxygen to come into contact with the peat bricks, so that they will burn in a shorter time and will not produce too much smoke.
Su Yuan didn't particularly care about this. As long as the burning time could be prolonged, it was enough. It wasn't for warming oneself by the fire, or for getting poisoned by a house burnt down.
So as long as the peat ratio is the same as before, it can burn.
"Alas, I don't know how long this Frost Crystal Season will take to pass."
The white weather made it almost impossible to distinguish between day and night, and he couldn't go out to look for resources or rare items.
Three days passed in all white, and the warriors were still training in an orderly manner. The warriors from the Black Sheep Tribe who came in later also began to practice archery.
All the things that had been piled up before were solved in the past few days. The bored expressions on the faces of the beast girls who had nothing to do were almost overflowing, and they leaned against each other in the camp all day long and stared blankly.
"I say, can't you two wait until night?"
Su Yuan sat on an animal skin mat, with Mao Ye and Pan Yue hugging his arms on both sides. The sweetness during this period made them seem like they were clinging to each other.
Now, the daily points income can only be supported by the Flame-Pattern Iron Ore previously stored in the camp, so he dare not spend a lot of points to exchange for Fire Spirit Drinks.
But even so, Su Yuan felt his waist begin to visibly ache.
"But it's boring..."
"Have you learned how to shoot arrows?" Su Yuan said helplessly as he carved the piece of wood in his hand with a knife.
